I live in MO and I am US citizen my spouse lives and works in UK. This is the first year we are filling with MFJ election on federal returns, with statement to do so, which brings spouses foreign income into consideration. It's fairly straight forward for federal returns, but surprisingly got an issue with the state returns.
It's MO state and since it requires to file both 1040 long and 1040-NRI, for some odd reason neither forms and specifically NRI form does not have an option to use foreign address to show spouses residency. Furthermore, it also requires to put which state spouse's residency was for the tax year if showing non-resident for MO. Software seems to default to putting the same address for both of us on both forms pulled from Federal Return form.
This brings two questions, does it matter if address on the forms for both of us is the same Missouri address or should spouses address be listed with foreign address even if MO-NRI form address field is formatted for US address only.
Second question, what about State field on the form to indicate which state spouse was resident for the tax year. Should that be left blank or just put any random state?
